They're not jokers

"We are not here to joke, who is the CEO?” he asks hitting the table with his fist.

"Is..is. I…let me call him” he tries to bring out his phone but Brian pins him down.

“Put your gun in place!” He said to the man”

“B-but is not a gun, I just want to make a call” Brian looked at Alex and he nods, then he let go of the man.

"I only need the name of the man, we will do the talking not you, understand,” Alex said bending over the table, his face almost touching the man’s face as he speaks in a deep cool, and harsh voice.

The man nods and muttered. “Lincoln and…

“And who?” Alex yell hitting the table but they heard a knock at the door.

“Excuse me, sir, is everything okay?” the man at the door asks and he nods vigorously.

“I’m fine, you can just come back later."

"Okay, sir,” the man at the door said giving Alex and the others a suspicious look.

Alex got up "I will be back,” he told the man who look nervous and then the three of them left the man’s office.

"Wow! that was wonderful,” Jack said as they entered the car to leave but Alex rested his head on the steering unable to move the car.

“Are you okay, move the car!” Jack said but it was serious, they pull him away and Jack took over the steering driving him straight to the hospital.

Before they know it he was on oxygen “Is it that serious?” they ask the nurse.

“Yes, but we will see what we can do for him”

"Please do something, he must not die?” Jack and Brian said.

For the first time, they felt like losing him., they didn’t want to lose him.

"He will be fine," the doctor said coming out of the room.

“Can we see him now?”

“Sure” they rushed in to see him, he was awake but too weak to even talk.

"But he was strong earlier? Was it not him that was threatening that man?” Jack asked Brian.

“Yeah, but I think he was just pretending to be strong.”

“What is wrong with him doctor?” they both ask at once.

“ He had a slight migraine, but I think he will be fine all he needs right now is lots of rest and one more thing let him not think too much, anxiety could course a serious migraine too and his heartbeat is weak, he should try and have lots of rest.

“Okay doctor” they sat beside him until he fully woke up.

“Why am I in the hospital?”

“The doctor said you think too much!” Brian said.

“Of course not, I only have a slight headache.”

“Exactly” Jack cuts in, “You have to cut down the way you think about women, those species are a bunch of trouble, stay with one woman Alex!."

"What is he talking about?” Alex asks Brian.

“I don’t know, what are you talking about?” Brian asks Jack in turn.

“Just forget it” Jack knew it was useless to talk to him about that.

"We have to go now, I need to get home, Clara might have found Sandra and my child” he got up to leave.

“But the doctor has to discharge you first,” the nurse said.

“Is it the money? I will pay” Alex brought out his phone and made the transfer and they went home.
